New Year's Resolutions

If you pay attention to the date and time stamp below, you will see that this photo was taken exactly 16 hours & 55 minutes into the new year. And this photo should really explain exactly where each of us stood on our new years resolutions. For starters, notice my absence. One of my many (999) resolutions was to get more sleep. I feel asleep the night before (new years eve for those of you are keeping track) at 9:30 pm (19 hours and 25 minutes later I am still asleep). Parker's only new years resolution was to live up to the expectations of any aspiring two year old and spend a considerable amount of time on the floor whining, kicking and screaming about the slavery that their parents oppress them under (he started this particular tirade about 5 minutes after I feel asleep - what can I say, he loves me). Stacey has about 10 spoken resolutions, and one unspoken (although I am sure that she will deny it) she makes every year; find new and inventive ways to disfigure her face for every photograph taken of her. She has more work to do but is really showing her commitment (remember I am asleep, so she even went to the trouble of setting the camera on the timer to practice).
